“…Saleem, Popov and Baggili [ 68 ] note the diversity of devices, the types of evidence, and the range of tools that are available. Failure to select the correct tool may lead to incomplete and/or improper extraction and, therefore, compromising the integrity of the evidence and diminishing its probative value.…”

“…The authors propose a decision-making framework for the selection of the most suitable tool to conduct an examination of a mobile phone and other small devices for a given investigation. In constructing the framework, the authors applied theories of decision analysis: 1) probability theory, noting that, in the past, examiners, selected a tool based on previous experience and without measuring the performance of the tool; 2) utility theory based on a survey of experts in the field regarding their degree satisfaction for the relevance of all types of digital evidence; and, 3) multi-criteria decision analysis where the cornerstones of the problem are uncertainties and utilities associated with different criteria (types of digital evidence) and alternatives (forensic tools) [ 68 ].…”

“…Furthermore, the omnipresence of mobile phones in the daily routine of people as well as the utility of its capabilities to improve people's life and to make it a simpler and more productive one by supporting its users during several different tasks, from financial transactions and leisure activities like multimedia or social networks, to reading, learning, messaging and or contacting with other people (Saleem et al, 2016). Alike, for Su & Xi (2017), the Mobile Phone Forensics science has the main goal of acquiring and collecting relevant data from the mobile devices, parsing it, and providing comprehensive conclusions derived from this data.…”

One of the main topics that is discussed today is how can a person leverage technology in a positive and secure way in order to enhance their lives. However, with improvements in technology comes challenges; the concern that people have over their privacy and the safeguard of sensitive information being the greatest. In fact, one of the most used technologies is the mobile, which can take different forms, features, and shapes and create, store, delete, and transfer various types of data that can be evidence for the forensics fields. As such, this chapter proposes a different approach to this field by conglomerating and researching for all the information available and aiming at building a comprehensive systematic literature review on the topics of forensics, digital and mobile device forensics using the PRISMA methodology, with the intent of supporting and enhancing the mobile device forensics investigation process and allowing for a more robust and up-to-date knowledge base by breaking through the techniques available.

The limitation of forensic tool and the mobile device's operating system are two problems for researchers in mobile forensics field. Nevertheless, some kinds of forensic tools testing in several devices might be helpful in an investigation. Therefore, the evaluation of forensic tool is one gate to reach the goal of a digital forensics study. Mobile forensics as one of the digital forensics branch that focusing on data recovery process on mobile devices has some problems in the analytical ability because of the different features of forensic tools. In this research, the researchers present studies and techniques on tools ability and evaluated them based on digital evidence of LINE analysis. The experiment was combined VV methods and NIST standard forensic methods to produce a model of forensic tool evaluation steps. As the result of the experiment, Oxygen Forensic has 61.90% of index number and MOBILedit Forensic has the highest index number at 76.19% in messenger application analysis. This research has successfully assessed the performance of forensic tools.
